Shooting while Pregnant?

Is it safe? I can't think of why it wouldn't be, other than the loud noise.

I would say go for it.

I did a little shooting this week when we were out at IL's farm and I wasn't worried. But I was considering going out to a firearms training facility out in Nevada in the spring for a 2 or 4 day course, and I was a little concerned about the same thing since baby will be a bit more developed by then. I don't know what I'll do, probably talk to my doc a little about it.

Hmm, after a quick google search, I came across this... http://www.shotgunworld.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=103012
So, I will probably err on the side of caution from the intense training course, but occasional target practice outside won't be that intense.

i would be worried about lead dust... but thats easy to fix... wash your hands and face good before you eat anything and you should be good.
